Medical Names.....Humour
Subject: Fw: Medical names for drugs
In Pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and generic
name.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol also has a generic name of
Acetaminophen. Aleve is also called Naproxen. Amoxil is also call
Amoxicillin and Advil is also called Ibuprofen.
The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful
consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced
that
it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered
were
Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course,
Ibepokin.
Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra will soon be available in
liquid
form, and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage suitable
for
use as a mixer. It will now be possible for a man to literally pour
himself a stiff one. Obviously we can no longer call this a soft
drink,
and it gives new meaning to the names of 'cocktails', 'highballs' and
just
a good old-fashioned 'stiff drink'. Pepsi will market the new
concoction
by the name of: MOUNT & DO.
Thought for the day: There is more money being spent on breast
implants
and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by
2040,
there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge
erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.

A girl asks her boyfriend to come over Friday night to meet, and have dinner with her parents. Since this is such
a big event, the girl announces to her boyfriend that after dinner, she would like to go out and make love for the first time.
The boy is ecstatic, but he has never had sex before, so he takes a trip to the pharmacist to get some condoms. He tells the pharmacist it's his first
time and the pharmacist helps the boy for about an hour. He tells the boy everything there is to know about condoms and sex.
At the register, the pharmacist asks the boy how many condoms he'd like to buy, a 3-pack, 10-pack, or family pack. The boy insists on the family pack because he thinks he will be rather busy, it being his first time and all.
That night, the boy shows up at the girl's parents house and meets his girlfriend at the door. "Oh, I'm so excited for you to meet my parents, come on in!"
The boy goes inside and is taken to the dinner table where the girl's parents are seated. The boy quickly offers to say grace and bows his head.
A minute passes, and the boy is still deep in prayer, with his head down.
10 minutes pass, and still no movement from the boy. Finally, after 20 minutes with his head down, the girlfriend leans over and whispers to the boyfriend,
"I had no idea you were this religious." The boy turns, and whispers back, "I had no idea your father was a pharmacist
